Publisher's summary

From the New York Times bestselling author of Robert Ludlum’s Jason Bourne series comes a breathtaking thriller about a man whose only chance to rescue his family is to return to the past he thought he’d left behind.

Tommy Miller is a man with deadly skills, hiding in Florida under a false identity. After being set up on an overseas mission, he’s on the run from terrorists—and from the government who betrayed him. So when his wife and daughter are violently abducted, it seems his ghosts are finally catching up with him.

But Tommy isn’t the only one with secrets. His wife, Teresa, has been concealing her own dangerous past, and as Tommy races to rescue his family, he must peel away the clues she’s left behind. With a hotshot police detective, Lindy Jax, close on his trail, Tommy follows a twisted path from Florida to the Bahamas, one that brings him face-to-face with ruthless enemies.

His search for answers soon puts him on the wrong side of the law—hunted by the police and pursued by men who want him dead. Worst of all, if he hopes to save Teresa and their daughter, Rosalita, he must become the man he once was—a killer operating from the deepest shadows.

But when the lives of the people you love are at stake, rules are made to be broken.

Overamped performance

The author s a good storyteller, and this book is no exception. My enjoyment of this book was diminished by the narrator. Call it overacting. Most readers want a little life in the narration, but too much can get annoying. This one crossed that line.

Could Be an Exceptional Series!

Brian Freeman is an author whose Jonathan Stride and Cab Bolton works made me an Audible fan. He writes excellent mysteries with intriguing, well-formed characters. Break Every Rule continues this and reminds me of the X Series (Evan Smoak), especially with the magnificent Scott Brick narrating the action. The antagonist brings to mind the vileness of Jeffrey Epstein/Gislaine Maxwell, which propels the plot forward. The ending suggests a possible return to Tiger’s life and family beyond Break Every Rule. Count me in.

Ready for the movie!

One of the most amazing, suspenseful novels I have ever read. It brought so much joy to listen to the Audible version each day. I have read all of Mr. Freeman’s Bourne novels, but this is the first I’ve read outside of the Bourne universe. I can’t wait to read more of his novels. He is my favorite author but far. I hope they produce the movie based on this story!

Riveting, Relevant, Heart-stopping

Brian Freeman was become one of those authors that’s an instant “buy now” or “pre-order” decision and this book did not disappoint. The story is relevant to current events without making political statements.

Tommy is the epitome of a strong capable man who will do anything to protect his friends and his family. The character development was perfection and the story was masterfully constructed. Simply an amazing read/listen.

As always, Scott Brick did a wonderful job with the narration. He’s not as adept at the female voices as some voice actors but his portrayal of the characters only enhanced the story.

Awful narration!

I’ve listened to just about all of Brian Freeman‘s books. This was a great story, but the narrator was terrible. He was way too theatrical for an action book, and there was no distinction in his voice between characters which made it hard to follow along. This is probably the worst narration of any of Brian’s books.

Tommy Miller

You absolutely have to start a Tommy Miller series!! I loved this book… I’m a 25 year retired veteran of the Minneapolis Police Department, of which I was in the SWAT Team. Most of those years on the Entry Team. I’ve had the privilege of training with men like Tommy Miller aka Tiger. Some of those men are still friends of mine today. Men that will do everything in their power to protect us and our freedoms from very evil people. I’m already craving the next story of Tommy Miller. I couldnt stop listening. The next book, if you choose to right it, I will buy and read actually read it, not just listen on Audible, though I do like the narrator, and the excitement he brings. Thank you. Now I’m going to go back and start reading and listening to all your books,even though I’ve seen the ones that made it to the movies. Thank you again.
